What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Amy is a fantastic woman to work with, she’s knowledgeable on all medications and their equivalents. Unfortunately, Courtney, one of her nurses, has been and continues to be one of the least respectful, least helpful, and overall my least favorite part of the experience. As an example, last week I changed my medication, I was put on a trial dosage (7 Days), after that I decided to continue the medication. I called the following week and left a message that I would like to continue using the medication, but that I had a few questions regarding the cost ($80 for seven pills). I asked if there were any programs that may offset the cost a bit, or if there was a way to perhaps contact the manufacturer (As I have little experience in the healthcare industry). The next day Courtney called me to inform me that my prescription was filled. I then asked about my other questions to which she responded “Uhh we don’t have any programs for that. Try GoodRx? Or Google it?”. This con.but I’m out of roo

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I would tell my family and friends that Dr. Northrop is an incredibly kind and understanding provider that has always done her absolute best for me. The care I have received from Dr. Northrop and other members of the behavioral health office has been pertinent to my healing and progress.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Amy Northrup makes me feel comfortable with a home like setting instead of a cold professional office. Amy makes me feel completely confident to discuss anything with her, no judgment. only compassion and understanding. Sometimes redirecting my priorities without me even realizing it. Amy has tracked my medications and given suggestions for supplements. My physical well-being is just as important as my mental health to Amy. I have have been treated at other mental health centers. Which usually led to severe anxiety and failure to complete treatment. In closing I want to say for the first time in my life I don't feel lost and confused regarding my mental health. I feel confident and informed in a enjoyable environment. I look forward to my appointments with Amy to discuss what goals I've accomplished and where I need help achieving others. I started treatment with Behavioral health and Amy Northrup I was homeless, reckless and suicidal. I now have all my needs met and more.

Feb 9, 2025
What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
It’s hard to meet someone and open up about such deep issues and Amy was wonderful at making me comfortable being a new person. I look forward to returning for the further help I need.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
